FuseSource acquired by RedHat

Yesterday, an important announcement was made: RedHat is acquiring FuseSource.  This news is following Progress announce a few weeks ago about FuseSource being divested as not being part of their new product strategy. This is truly exciting. RedHat looks like a fantastic company, pure Open Source players as we are too.  We will be integrated into the JBoss Enterprise Middleware Group and even if there is some overlap on the products, I don't have any doubts that we'll be able to find the best way to leverage our respective strengths to build new awesome products for our users and customers. This is definitely a good fit for both RedHat and FuseSource, and I'm definitely thrilled about it.

It will be used in Karaf 3.0 and in the next Fuse ESB .

Unit testing Camel Blueprint routes

Last week, while in Vegas , I discussed with my colleague Scott Cranton and he told me that something that was really making our users tend to stick with Spring-DM when using Camel Blueprint routes was that unit testing those routes was not possible. So I hacked a small support library for Camel, leveraging PojoSR which provides a service registry without using a fully compliant OSGi container. This allows defining real unit tests (as opposed to integration tests using Pax Exam . See the below example. public class DebugBlueprintTest extends CamelBlueprintTestSupport { @Override protected Collection<URL> getBlueprintDescriptors() { return Collections.singleton(getClass().getResource("camelContext.xml")); } @Test public void testRoute() throws Exception { // set mock expectations getMockEndpoint("mock:a").expectedMessageCount(1); // send a message template.sendBody("direct:start&quo

I'm back from Las Vegas where we had a fantastic FuseSource KickOff meeting. As you can see below, a real camel had been brought from the west coast and James even had a short ride on it! On the technical side, we expect a bunch of exciting stuff this year, so you'll certainly hear from us soon.
